Evidence for continental drift includes all of the following except
fossils of same type of organisms found on different continents
glacial deposits found where glaciers no longer exist
similar rock formations found on edges of distant continents
large mounds of oceanic crust found at the leading edge of the continents

Glacial deposits found where glaciers no longer exist

Explanation:

Scientists found the fossils of numerous indistinguishable showing up species on generally isolated main lands. They had two hypotheses for this. Initially, they conjectured that different species grew indistinguishably over the distant, a profoundly improbable idea. The subsequent theory was that the landmasses had been in contact with one another a large number of years prior, and had by one way or another, floated separated.  

These landmasses were in contact at some point previously, enabling species to wander unreservedly, bite the dust, be covered, and become fossilized over these central lands.

the first phase of the government’s plan for settlement was building the transcontinental railroad. the railroad provided a way to bring settlers and manufactured goods west and ship their agricultural and mining produce east. the transcontinental railroad was an essential artery for rapid development of the frontier.

the second phase of the government’s plan was a liberal land distribution policy that made it possible for many people to homestead. with these two key elements—transportation and cheap land—the government rapidly achieved its goal of persuading people to move west, settle on farms, and push back the frontier.
